Omschrijving
Roman Niewodniczanski die in 2000 het domein overnam en volledig restaureerde maakt deel uit van de Bittburger familie. Zijn drang naar kwaliteit is ontoombaar en zijn streven is om optimaal de verschillende top terroirs (steile mineraalrijke leisteen, zandsteen en rhyoliet) te laten spreken. Hiervoor zijn grote investeringen gedaan in de wijnbergen en de druiven worden steeds laat en handmatig in verschillende fasen eind oktober/november geplukt. Lees meer onder de tab: Wijnhuis
De Van Volxem Alte Reben Riesling komt van wijngaard op devonische leisteengronden met delen van ryoliet of kwartsporfier van vulkanische oorsprong. Een geweldige droge wijn afkomstig van de steilste leisteen hellingen. Het is de perfecte rijping van de kleine bessen van 120 jaar oude wijnstokken, op deze superlocatie, die ons in staat stelt de diepe, dichte, zijdezachte textuur van deze wijn te ervaren.
De Van Volxem Alte Reben Riesling wijn bestaat volledig uit de Riesling Druif. Na een handmatige oogst gaan de druiven in stalen tanks voor inweking en vergisting. Dit totale proces en lagering neemt 6 tot 7 maanden in beslag waarna de botteling zonder klaring plaatsvindt. De Alte Reben Riesling heeft leen evendige lichtgele kleur en een rijke geur met rijp fruit, grapefruit, ananas en sinaasappelschil. In de mond droge fruitsmaken zoals citrus met een zoutige hint. Frisse zuren en een lange afdronk. Perfect als aperitief, bij visgerechten (niet gerookt), schaal en schelpdieren, lichte vleesgerechten en blank gevogelte, oosters gekruide gerechten en geitenkaas.
WEETJE: De wijn ligt in ons geconditioneerde Wine Warehouse en als u de wijn komt afhalen ontvangt u vaak ook nog een mooie korting. U ziet uw korting direct wanneer u kiest voor ‘Afhalen’ op de afreken pagina. We zitten in Dordrecht gelegen bijna naast de A16 met volop parkeergelegenheid. Klik hier voor ons adres.

Sourced from old, partly ungrafted Riesling vines in the Saar and the Mosel, the intensely colored 2023 Alte Reben opens with a clear, fresh and intense bouquet of perfectly ripe and juicy fruits intermingled with crunchy slate notes. On the palate, this is a rich, elegant and intense yet vital and savory Riesling with a dense texture and fine, crystalline acidity that carries the wine to a long, intense and saline finish. Tasted as an unfiltered sample in August 2024 and from bottle in early September from AP 39 24, this wine is gorgeous yet a bit muted at this early stage after the bottling. 50,000 bottles filled in September 2024. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork.
Considering that Roman Niewodniczanski started out almost a quarter of a century ago with predominantly off-dry (feinherb) Rieslings from the best Saar sites, a paradigm shift has certainly taken place here in the last few years. Today, the wines are all dry. And not just dry like those of Markus Molitor, but really dry. This began under cellar master Dominik Völk, but it is perhaps even more uncompromising under his successor Christoph Friedrich, who made the wines at Schlossgut Diel (Nahe) for many years. Today, only the Prädikat wines are not dry, but—at least in the case of the Kabinett Prädikat—they are also a few miles away from the top class. In the dry category, however, the winery high above the Saar is one of the best in the entire Moselle region. The self-proclaimed Saar wine estate now cultivates not only vineyards along the Saar but also the Maximiner Herrenberg in Longuich on the Moselle. Even more remarkable, however, is the outstanding quality of the wines from the Geisberg. This steep grand cru was recultivated by van Volxem (together with Molitor) a few years ago in a cloak-and-dagger operation; it became famous as the Ockfener Geisberg in the 19th century, but it is to be a Schodener site in the future. Nothing against Schoden, but do you know Schoden? You probably know the Bockstein better. This magnificent site still belongs to Ockfen, but not its extension into the valley, which has always been called Ockfener Geisberg. It was only after more than 100 years that an official noticed that this site belongs to Schoden for administrative purposes, even though this village is much further away than the nearby Ockfen. It remains to be seen how the battle will turn out, but the wines from this once-renowned and then forgotten steep slope, which was recultivated thanks to the attention of Dominik Völk, are of magnificent, unmistakable quality, whether dry, off-dry or sweet.
Nevertheless, among the dry Rieslings, it is the Scharzhofberger that stands out in terms of personality, especially the Pergentsknopp P. But then comes the Geisberg, the (Kanzemer) Altenberg and the (Ockfener) Bockstein.
Incidentally, van Volxem can no longer produce an Ockfener Riesling village wine, as the grapes previously came from the Bockstein and the Geisberg. Instead, Roman is allowed to produce two village wines, the Ockfener and the Schodener. Yet not only is the quantity too small for that, but life is complicated enough as it is. The solution is now called GeisBock (which sounds like Geissbock, i.e. billy goat), which perfectly symbolizes the whole dilemma with the authorities.
